Vicon V1300X-IA Alarm Interface, accepts up to 32 custom alarm inputs.
32 inputs, expandable to 64
Visual and audible alarms
Communicates alarm to NovaTM (VPS)® CPU
The V1300X-IA Alarm Interface allows external alarm devices to be connected to a Nova (VPS) digital control CPU. In the basic configuration, up to 32 alarms may be connected to a single V1300X-IA, while an expanded unit (V1300X-IA-EX) accepts up to 64. Multiple V1300X-IAs may be cascaded together for further expansion.
When the V1300X-IA senses a change in status of one of its alarm inputs, it transmits the information to the VPS CPU, which announces the alarm to the operator and may also execute a preprogrammed response to the alarm. Such responses include displaying the video from the camera associated with the alarm on selected alarm monitors, causing a camera station to carry out a preset-position program or a tour, and displaying a special alarm message on the alarm monitors. The V1300X-IA also flashes a red LED and generates a warning
tone.
Acknowledging individual alarm inputs is performed from the VPS operator control panel. Enabling and disabling individual alarm inputs is done by software in the system CPU. The V1300X-IA is compatible with all Nova (VPS) CPUs except the VPS328, which has its own alarm interface. The V1300XIA
connects to theCPU with a parallel data interface. UL ®
A single auxiliary relay output activates when any alarm input goes active. This relay may be used to control some external device, such as a VCR. In the case of multiple cascaded XIAs, only the auxiliary output on the X-IA that received the alarm goes active. The AUX outputs on the other X-IAs do not
go active.
The alarm inputs are normally closed and go active when the remote alarm switch opens or goes active high. Alarm inputs are CMOS/TTL compatible.
